Did the Third Man Records tour today and pulled the fortunate Ben Blackwell tour guide lottery ticket. Was lovely.
Last full day. 🏖️
My 2nd gen Kindle seems to finally be dead. Now what do I get?!
A rainy day, so we’re thinking Ghostbusters.
So far, so good.
Alright, friends, it’s time to go on vacation. Tomorrow we’re off too the sunny Florida panhandle, assuming we get out before the Minnesota snow lands.
Been holding on to this since last July in Togari, Japan. Tonight was finally the right time to crack open some Bread.

For those who visit Japan frequently, and fly 10+ hours, what is your minimum stay requirement given jet lag and the…pain of long flights? We enjoyed visiting so much that I want to be ready to jump on any mistake airfares. I’m thinking 10 days is reasonable, but maybe I should’ve push to 7?
Flights to Iceland booked for July. Now to get planning!
Snack time. A favorite that came home with us from Japan.
Rue Saint-Paul dans le Vieux-Montréal.
Musée de l’Illusion Montréal.
Pizza in Little Italy in Montréal.
I love you Canada. I love you CF Montréal. But this is a crime against nature.
CF Montréal.
Must Fairmount!
Ready for the lights and organs. Basilique Notre-Dame a Montréal.
We’re home. And we’re ready to go back.
🇯🇵❤️🇰🇷
Last full day of the trip. See my prior post for the great start to the day - seeing where our nephews spent the first months of their lives. 😭 Then K-pop dance classes and visiting various K-pop touch points. Eating Ttoekbokki and bulgogi. Finishing the night at Seoul Record Pub. ❤️
Two of our nephews were adopted from South Korea and today we were able to visit the orphanage where they spent the first 6 months of their lives. They were escorted to the USA at the time of their adoption. This was the first time anyone in our family, aside from the boys, had been there. 🥹😢😭
Quite a day in Seoul. Walked through the Gyeongbokgung Palace grounds and Bukchon Village in hanbok; ate Cho Yonsoon’s famous handmade Korean Noodles in Gwangjang Market; struck poses at Dongdaemun Design Plaza and KTO K-Pop center; and finished the night with BB.Q Chicken and speakeasy cocktails.
Empties.
